The Biggs House-Massie block fire occurred in 1871. Among other business places destroyed was Carter's Hotel, Lynn's Livery Barn, Dugan's bank, Valley bookstore, John Yoakley's music store, Times Office, Eisman's, Val Reinhart's Candy factory, L wises, Ross palmers, Timmons, Eberhard's and others. Reilly's stock was carried to the Market House, and much stock from the other stores elsewhere, especially cigars and tobacco and candy. The Mountain Boy river boat was moored at the wharf, and the "roustabouts" who joined in the rescue may have mistaken the boat as a place for salvage. at any rate, considerable goods not consumed by flames could  not be located. The Steamer Eagle had been secured, but no water works had been built, and it was necessary to run the hose to the Ohio. Charlie Soule, portrait painter, and Mr. Garlic, photographer were in the Massie Block and lost all. For many years, as was in the case of the 1884 flood, everything was dated from, "The Fire". The loss was very heavy, but it served one good purpose… The Water Works was built.</text>
